No, it isn't.

Also, there isn't any gtk/glib nightmare, you are just clueless.
Perhaps you want to make yourself familiar with the way the compiler
and linker works or alternatively, stick to binary packages.

Make sure that /usr/local/lib is in /etc/ld.so.conf (before /usr/lib)
and run ldconfig. That might fix it.
